THE DENTISSE FORMULA: A CLOSER LOOK
Research shows that Dentisse® Natural Reflection™ produces the highest degree of polish available from any commercial toothpaste. It cleans and whitens teeth gently, thoroughly, and naturally.
Natural kaolin clay
That’s because of its main ingredient, kaolin. This is a natural, white clay – one of Earth’s most abundant minerals. The kaolin in Dentisse comes from the southern United States and is purified and refined, making it a safe, effective cleaning and polishing agent.
After impurities are removed, the clay is heat-treated at high temperature. This causes thermal dehydration of its platelet-shaped particles, so their surfaces function more efficiently (on a microscopic scale) in cleaning and polishing tooth enamel.

Typical toothpastes, with their particles of silica, calcium carbonate or other abrasives, depend on the jagged particle edges to scrape away plaque and stains. But the kaolin in Dentisse provides platelets that slide across the tooth enamel, removing plaque and surface stains and polishing more gently and effectively than any other toothpaste on the market. Result? Teeth shine with maximum gloss, maximum luster.
